Phantom is desperately trying to say that a user called Mike10Dude is responsible. Supposedly phantom received a private email where Mike admits to it. There's a lot of skepticism on whether or not this message is real.

The private message Phantom shared

Now here is where things get REALLY interesting, check out this comment down below left by I-Tube admin MyRealityBytes

Oh really now??? I can easily prove otherwise & I think the insinuation of this comment here is quite obvious. Do you remember what Mike10Dude did while I was still running I-Tube?? Lets review...

Mike attempted to shut down I-Tube/DT thru a denial of service attack (pretty pathetic one btw) by refreshing the front page THOUSANDS of times. LOL... I responded in kind by forwarding this IP to a site he didn't want to go to. At the time I didn't know whose IP address that belonged to but I eventually found out.

How did I find out? Because mike10dude tweeted about his own redirect.

So what kind of 'good friend' goes and tries to maliciously have a person's website shut down? Better yet why is MyRealityBytes saying we've been good friends, when we had a skype convo saying I hardly knew him.

Imagine how hard I laughed when I came home last night and found that comment on his page! LOL[9/12/2009 10:09:45 AM] firewall5000 says: yea it was fairly amusing to me too[9/12/2009 10:09:51 AM] firewall5000 says: and pretty shocking too[9/12/2009 10:11:41 AM] anotherbyte says: that guy has been on DT forever, but I don't know him.[9/12/2009 10:12:58 AM] firewall5000 says: we've been subbed to each other and been subbed to others we both know. I'm not really close friends with him

Now lets do a brief recap and take a look at this screen shot. Something MBD said on his youtube channel a while back.

Rather than trying to scapegoat me for something I've had no part in, why don't you handle this the right way? Why don't ya'll "leave the drama behind" as first promised when launching I-Tube??? Why don't you guys grow a pair and finally kick this false DMCA filing schmuck to the curb? When it comes to leaving the drama behind you, that would be a good 1st step. Just a thought...

2 weeks ago a website called Vloggerheads was plagued with fraudulent copyright complaints, which were intended to create disarray amongst their online community . It is EXTREMELY likely that the person responsible is I-Tube user Phantom409 aka PhantomVision. I say this based on my personal experience with the guy & his extensive history of doing these sorts of shenanigans.

Even though Vloggerheads has more or less moved on from this bad situation, it has oddly enough created a shit storm on I-Tube. On occasion my name has been mentioned, even though I have absolutely nothing to do with I-Tube nor with this latest episode of melodramatic fuckery.

When I was the head admin of I-Tube back in July 2009, I decided to ban PhantomVision permanently for him admitting to filing illegal DMCA's against the site now known as I-Tube.

Now with that being said, check out this screenshot one of my friends sent to me. Pay particular attention to the very last sentence highlighted in white.

Basically, what Katfellow says is Phantom409 should have never been allowed to return to I-Tube after he admitted to filing fraudulent DMCA's back in July 2009. At the time this opinion was shared by just about every member who participated on that website. NO ONE wanted to see phantom409 return. I agreed with this and always have...

However, check out this response to Katfellow, a dishonest C.Y.A. move from I-Tube admin MyRealityBytes aka 'Bytes'.

If you haven't figured it out by now, Firewall is me.

My memory of that whole fiasco happened quite a bit differently. Evidently old chat logs from Skype backs me up entirely. This is what I said to phantom after he admitted to attacking that site with false DMCA's

And here's my conversation with MyRealityBytes (skype name is anotherbyte) soon afterwards:

7/6/2009 9:34:35 PM] firewall5000 says: You're ass is gone and consider yourself banned from this website permanently. Meaning...no 2 week banishments for you. Nope you're gone for good.....[7/6/2009 9:35:55 PM] anotherbyte says: ^ what's this? you sent that to Phantom?[7/6/2009 9:36:09 PM] firewall5000 says: yes i just banned phantom[7/6/2009 9:36:29 PM] firewall5000 says: he filed at least several DMCA's just now[7/6/2009 9:36:34 PM] anotherbyte says: holy shit - he just apologized to me via email....................[7/6/2009 9:37:00 PM] anotherbyte says: what does he want ? a war? cuz he will get it[7/6/2009 9:37:23 PM] anotherbyte says: i am in the mood to rip someone's head off, might as well be him

Initially Phantom was to be banned permanently. However, after he contacted Ning (hosting provider) and had those fraudulent DMCA's legally retracted. I finally relented and reduced his penalty from a permaban to a 3 month suspension. After telling him this, Phantom started crying about how I was being unfair and thought I should've reinstated him immediately.

Phantom soon realized that I had ZERO sympathy for him and I wasn't budging. So instead of hassling me, he decides to start begging FragUPlenty and MyRealityBytes for his account to be reinstated. After about 2 weeks of Frag and MyRealityBytes being inundated with Phantom's begging. Guess what happens? Suddenly MyRealityBytes started repeating some of the same manipulative bullshit that Phantom tried to sell to me.

After I made it abundantly clear that he was to remain suspended for 3 months and it wasn't negotiable. Guess what they pulled ONE MONTH later...

When saying "We", she means Frag and HERSELF (primarily her). I can't tell you how pissed off I was when first hearing that. If I had known what kind of person she really is, then I would've told everyone it was her doing and let 'em rip into her. Instead I decided to be the 'good friend', not say anything, and took the wrath for something I never supported.

Here's my question... since MyRealityBytes loves to talk constant trash how much of a retard Phantom409 is.... Someone who managed to play with her emotions for his own selfish interest. Then what does that make her????

MyRealityBytes, during this time you repeatedly catered to Phantom409 because you "felt sorry for him" which has always come back to haunt you and the rest of I-Tube. This is the bed you have made for yourself. Don't you dare try to save your own ass at my expense, by attempting to revise history.

It's been less than a week since DramaTube has transitioned over to the new name I-Tube.net. There are already allegations being made against the admins that they are allowing doc droppers on that site.. For those who are unaware of the term, a doc dropper is somebody who deliberately reveals somebody's personal information as a means to intimate and/or threaten that person. It's a very cowardly thing to do and the act is prohibited in almost every website's Term's of Service (Ning included) and illegal in most countries.

Whether the claim is valid or not it doesn't surprise me at all. It doesn't matter what candy bar wrapper a website goes under, the bullshit will continue if the same folks are managing the place. Did you know that MeanBlackDude is a doc dropper himself??! Oh yes he sure is because when Dramatube (aka I-tube) was in its 1st week of operation he actually committed such an act in one of his own blogs. A while back some young punks decided to record themselves torturing this poor cat and posted it on youtube. The video in question spread like wildfire and before you know it everyone was on the hunt to identify these kids and have them arrested.

During the process, some anonymous a-hole thought it'd be funny to randomly pick somebody's number off the phonebook, post it in a message board, and falsely claim it belonged to the animal abusers. The result of that was an elderly couple who had nothing to do with incident, were inundated with threatening phone calls. MeanBlackDude caught wind of this and posted the elderly couple's info in a blog and told members to harass them. He unknowingly perpetuated the problem like the idiotic and impulsive drunk that he is. His excuse? MBD said he drank too much at the time and that supposedly shields him from being held accountable for his actions.

That was one of my very first warning signs of MBD and I regrettably choose not to pay much attention to the incident. Here's a guy who was not only an admin, but a co-founder of a website and yet he couldn't even follow one of our most sacred rules. He not only made himself look bad, made me and Frag look bad, but also made the entire website look bad. Yet this guy is advertising this i-tube site and asking people to join??!!! I think not....

A very old blog (Dec. 2009) that I posted and decided to move here. Should give you better insight in how MeanBlackDude operates. DramaTube is now known as I-Tube.net btw. Same shit, different name...

I wanted you all to know EXACTLY as to why we left Dramatube. Friends of mine keep asking exactly as to why we left and figured they deserve an answer. Some think that Frag and I left because "our egos got in the way". Frag and I spent lots of time, dedication, and even money into promoting that site. We spent way more time and energy into DT then MeanBlackDude ever did while we were there. Does it make any sense for founding members to one day just quit over trivial matters?

Don't let Dramatube's new management fool you into thinking that things are gonna be different. From what they have already done, they have laid the groundwork for DT's ultimate failure and history repeating itself. MeanBlackDude has reinstated accounts to some of the worst trolls the internet has to offer. He even went so far as to reinstate the account of a registered sex offender who was convicted of child molestation. You can view the person in question both on the Georgia state sex offender registry and here as well..

In the beginning, Dramatube actually got off to a very good start. Eventually however a few unsavory people started hearing about the site, they signed up, and that's when big trouble first began. Some of these guys are 100% social misfits and had an agenda against DT from day one. An agenda such as viciously attacking other members, false accusations against the staff, disrupting the chatroom, revealing ppl's personal info, false DMCA's, etc etc. Basically doing everything humanly possible to sabotage the site.

Some of these people went so far as to take things offline and pull people's real life families into this. Personally, I was harassed quite a bit off of Dramatube for months and even got up to 20 harassing phone calls one night. And yet somehow MeanBlackDude has the nerve to cater to such people by saying that we were ultimately to blame and made us the scapegoat.

Since now that we are out of the picture, are we to assume that these guys will magically just stop what they're doing? That's very funny given all their history.. In fact, one of these guys has a history spanning all the way back to 7 years and has been picked up by the police at least twice. If he thinks all the bullshit is gonna vanish now that we're gone, then he's in for a rude awakening. Eventually they'll find somebody else to fuck around with now that we're gone and things will be right back to where they were.

Much of the original DT administrators did just about everything possible to keep such people off the site. Whereas MeanBlackDude (who was mostly M.I.A.) did absolutely nothing to help. His excuse? Supposedly he works between 15-17 hours a day. That's very interesting because the few times I've visited Dramatube since my departure, his name always shows up in the activity bar. So are we to believe that MBD has a laptop attached to his waist, always leaving comments on blogs/videos while he's out driving on the road? I know people in real life who've worked such insane hours and they barely have time to sleep, eat, and take a shit much less play around on a website.
